Change Instance Host and DB host

Hi all,

We need to move our current Solution Manager 7.1 SR1 Dual Stack from a physical Windows Server to a virtual one running on vmware. In fact, we need to separate the Application Server and Database Server (Currently Solman is running in just one server).

I do not want to rename the Aplication Server because the references and connections in use right now. The Application server IP address will be maintained too. What is the best option? I am not sure if System Copy is the way to go...

Regards,

A.

Dear Andres,

You need to follow the below steps in general if the vmware OS is same.

- Take a backup of database.

- Take a export of java instance filesystem

- On target server , install the Database software

- Restore the backup on the target server

- Run the SWPM and select the system copy option for distributed environment.

Also let us know which database are you using.

With Regards

Hi Ashutosh,

Database is MSSQL Server. Thanks for the answer. I´ll keep going with the System Copy Guide for ABAP+JAVA SAP Netweaver.

Thanks,
